Grand Hotel Traveller Review
This was our first trip to Budapest and we had a great weekend staying at this hotel on an island. The
bedroom was big, as was the bathroom (in fact I don’t think there was a small room in the place). Both
were very clean. There were comfortable beds and our room was very quiet at night.
The island is peaceful, so was ideal after walking around the noisy city all day. There’s only the one hotel
there. The rest of the island is a large park and local people relax and play sport there. Getting on and off
the island was easy as the bridge is close to the hotel. It’s easy to walk to this, but Bus 26 also runs up
and down the island. This is great if it’s raining but we had good weather so didn’t use it. However, the
bus connects well with other transport links (metro and trams) to the city.
The three-day travel card is excellent for getting round the city on any public transport. Taxis from the
hotel, however, are very expensive. One was half the price when we booked it from a city restaurant to
go back to the hotel one night. The restaurant in the hotel seemed good, especially with live music, but
not cheap, so we ate out.
